In our Art topic this term, we have been looking at the work of impressionist artists such as Claude Monet.
This week, we experimented with watercolours and acrylic paint using different brushstrokes in an impressionist style. We practiced techniques such as stippling, sgraffito, hatching and dry-brushing. We also looked at the use of complementary colours and how they can affect the appearance of light in art. We will use these techniques and take inspiration from the artists we have researched when we create our own impressionist style landscape paintings over the next couple of weeks.
